The latest Investing Matters Podcast episode featuring Jeremy Skillington, CEO of Poolbeg Pharma has just been released. Listen here.
I doubt there will be any bumper dividends this year or as long as the risk of sanctions either from West or Russia remain in place.
They'll want to make sure they are extra covered in case of any grey, maybe even white swan events.
After the war then yeah these div levels long fairly likely
that's all any of us are doing :)
oh good this stock does go up sometimes too :)
Just another £1.50 to break even!!
The only reason there is such a big possible reward from something like Poly (Evraz, Ferrexpo, etc) is because there is a big risk attached.
I am much more sanguine with people sticking with shares or even just indexes. If you can pick up 6-7% a year safely and have a long time horizon then no need to risk it for a biscuit.
need any cheese to go with that whine?
Ramp actually gaps often fill, even usually, but nothing in charts guarantees the future as you 'probably' know.
MassiveRay we don't need any of that type of pessimism :)
a few comments about struggling to buy here, just so you know II (maybe others) have an issue this morning with a 3rd party so can't give live quotes.
Could be reason some are having trouble

"The trading and mining company has struggled over the past year, in part due to the volatile movements in the iron ore price. As a result, the share price has fallen 48.5% over this period. "
So nothing to do with an invasion near their mines.
At least he thinks it's a weak buy :)
why would nato go in when the war is already going Ukraine's way?
you are a bit silly with some of your posts. a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, in investing as well as being an armchair general.
Patriarch Kirill calls for a ceasefire and a Christmas truce in Ukraine
Russian state-owned news agency Tass is reporting that Patriarch Kirill has called for a ceasefire and a Christmas truce in Ukraine. In a statement posted to the church’s website, Kirill said:
I, Kirill, Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus, appeal to all parties involved in the internecine conflict with an appeal to cease fire and establish a Christmas truce from noon on 6 January to midnight on 7 January, so that Orthodox people can attend services on Christmas Eve and the day of the Nativity of Christ.
The patriarch has faced stern external criticism for his support of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
that depends on the business, what is a bank or insurance company better to put it's money when it can only invest or leverage itself so far and stay 'safe'?
If the shares seem cheap then buying back shares is better for anyone who pays dividend tax (esp the joke reduction in this next year to £1k and year after to $500 b4 paying tax) but if price is high then returning money to investors seems a better option then gambling it.
you should stop regurgitating what the Mail feeds you and think for yourself.
Maybe a new year resolution, we will all be better off from it
probably why it's not just called Goldmetal
eviking it's never coming back down! :( but also :)
you'd think all these strikes leading up to xmas (the golden quarter if you will) has to be good for online retailers
There will be no diplomacy that lets Russia take more land as what would that say to China?
We'll be angry a few months if you invade Taiwan then we'll let you keep it?
Also there is a huge amount of money wasted in this country so nurses vs ukraine is an uneducated view.
How about nurses vs non-doms or vs covid loan fraud of £4bill Sunak wrote off, or all the dodgy or non-existant PPE we spent billions of public money on contracts for?
Those are where we should be spending our time not acting like nurses, ambulance workers, teachers, rail station cleaners, etc shouldn't get an inflation payrise after years of pay freeze, but Sunak's mate in the city need the cap only allowing them bonuses of double their salaries to be removed.
Ukraine money doesn't even come into it and is being counted against foreign aid budget , as is sinking asylum seekers in the channel (As they are trying to escape brown and black wars, not a white one) which has already been halved in the last couple years.
Global Britain looking very much like a nothing little island trying to blame everyone else for its failings.
I don't think there is any direction currently. Earlier in year it spent about 2 months between 230-270 so expect it to sit in this range until something happens in war or China reopens/closes up, or possibly the US CPI and then Fed decision though obviously big Russian/Ukraine news will be most likely to move the needle.
